Skyscanner Hotel and Car Hire Comparison Rolls Out Worldwide
By Skyscanner, PRNETuesday, November 10, 2009
EDINBURGH, Scotland, November 11 - Travel search site Skyscanner (www.Skyscanner.net) is continuing
its drive into international markets with the launch of its ancillary travel
comparison services across all 24 of its top level domains, including the
Spanish, German, Portuguese, Russian and Japanese Skyscanner sites.
The hotel comparison tool allows users to search over 200,000 hotels to
find the best deals and is now available in 20 languages. The car hire tool
searches over 500 leading car rental companies and suppliers to find the
lowest prices on vehicle hire and is now available in 17 languages.
Barry Smith, Skyscanner co-founder and company director said:
"Skyscanner flight search has been available in 20 languages for almost
two years; now we can offer our international users the best deals on car
hire and hotels too. We already have a massive user base outside of the UK
and this launch further boosts Skyscanner's profile as a one stop travel shop
in these markets".
The release follows the news of Skyscanner completing its BRIC domain
portfolio, upsizing to new offices and hiring a team of international
marketing managers to help Skyscanner's continued expansion into non-English
speaking countries.
